This is worse than being married
Ep. 254

Is there such a thing as a funny Immodium story? What about a romantic pre-wedding wax? We may never know.
In the meantime, Jane and Fi are joined by designer and television presenter Patrick Grant, to talk about his new book "Less: Stop Buying So Much Rubbish: How Having Fewer, Better Things Can Make Us Happier".
